Visual Studio Code Not Finding/Using Mono

Question

I have a new Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS install.

I have installed:

• Visual Studio Code 1.73.0
• .net 3.1 using this link here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/linux-ubuntu#install-the-sdk
• mono 6.12.0.182

For my project, I need to use .net 3.1. To do this in visual studio code, I have to use Mono.

When I load up the project I get a message that it needs Mono. I have /usr/bin/mono in the Omnisharp: Mono Path as seen below in the screen shot.

Anyone know how to fix this so VS code uses mono as it metnions?

Hi @dman777 ,

You are using Visual Studio Code, which is different from Visual Studio. The tags “vs-xxx” are related to Visual Studio, for more questions about Visual Studio Code, please post it to the Stack Overview tagged visual-studio-code forum or GitHub repository where you would get professional support for this product.

Thanks for your understanding.

Sincerely,
Anna
